My mother has hardly driven anywhere since my Father died 5 months ago. Their car - a 2006 S40 D5 auto with 75000 miles - has cost her a fair whack since with routine servicing and brakes.
And now: it looks like a gummed-up EGR valve. Her indy has had a go at cleaning it, and she drove around at high revs for a week to try to dissolve any crud, but to no avail.
No loss in performance though - can she expect the problem to get worse soon?
Any idea what a new part would cost? Is it the kind of job where a main dealer might be able to get close or match indy prices? (Ref. cambelt threads).
